Uranic
Uranic describes attraction to men and to masculine or neutral-aligned non-binary people, but not to women.
Uranic describes attraction to men along with masculine and neutral-aligned non-binary people, while not including attraction to women. It is the counterpart to neptunic and takes its name from the planet Uranus. Like neptunic, it is used chiefly by non-binary and genderqueer people who want language for their attractions that does not center their own gender the way "gay" or "straight" tends to. Someone whose gender makes "attracted to men" hard to phrase through older labels might describe themselves as uranic instead. These planet-based terms emerged in online LGBTQ+ communities and remain community coinages rather than formal or clinical vocabulary, so exact definitions can vary between users.
